This is a very well-conceived effect. The psychology employed is excellent. The spectators will be convinced that they've been seeing a full deck of red cards the whole time, up until the change.

This effect is clearly not for beginners. Not so much because the moves are technically difficult, but because there's a lot of timing and audience management issues that can only be handled well with experience.

The main challenges are the initial card selection... it's very limited. And the final steal and ditch can be extremely intimidating. Like I said, not technically difficult... anyone can grab some cards and stuff them into their pocket. The issue here is finding the right moment and using the right body language to make sure it isn't noticed. This part has to be done well, because the whole point of the effect is that the deck can be examined at the end. If you're spotted ditching cards, game over.

The change used here is another one that a lot of people can do, but as Oz points out, a lot do it very poorly. All of this adds up to an effect that it relatively easy to do, but actually somewhat difficult to do WELL. But after seeing the demo, I think you'll agree it's very much worth the effort.

GET THIS!

I am only 14, and I got it down in an hour. It does take a little sleight of hand, but Oz teaches it perfectly. This trick may seem impossible, but it's not! You can do it! The only downside to this trick is that if you mess up a little, then the whole trick goes down the drain, but hey, its the same with any trick.

ADD TO CART!

It's a great trick but much more difficult than most other reviewers state. Requires good control of cards for shuffling and cutting the deck. Great for amateur magicians good with cards but not for beginners.

This trick is very good, and powerful. The other 46 people that have left comments have summed up the good points.

No one has mentioned yet that while at the end the deck is fully examinable, it is obviously not full which most people comment on fairly quickly.

This one looks great when you see Oz perform it, but there are 2 things I don't like about it. The fact that the spectator can only choose a card near the top, and it has a real dirty end. The color change is really hit-and-miss. Not recommended for beginners.

It's still an amazing trick if you're skilled enough to pull it off.

I purchased this effect many months ago, but I put it away because it was too difficult. Now that I have improved my card work, I set about to learn this effect again. It is a wonderful effect, I really love it and have made it part of my routine.

This is an intermediate level trick. It is not difficult, but it is not for newbies either. If you are new to cards, you should get yourself OZ's Born to Perform Card Magic dvd first. You should at least have mastered the Erdnase before you purchase this effect. If you can do an erdnase, you will find this effect to be excellent.

While this effect is the bare bones of a color changing deck routine, it has an easy set up and is easy to perform. It is great for beginners and very visual, plus cleanup is a sinch if you can cop.

This was the first purchase I made on penguin (ive spent hundreds of dollars since)..

This is an amazing effect, not too difficult, teaches you audience management. And people talk about the "problem while spectator picks a card", its EASILY overcome with the suggestions on the forum. The ending is KINDA dirty but there are no gaffed cards, its great.

if everything goes well its a great effect. There is a problem when they pick their card. I don't use this trick. Save your money for something better.

I got this trick because he said it was examinable. Well, it's not that easy to let everyone examine it. So, if you really love the demo video then buy it, But i did not like it.
